Abstract

This paper presents an AI-powered Interview Bot, a real-time conversational platform designed to automate and enhance the interview process using advanced speech recognition and language models. Traditional interview systems rely heavily on manual evaluation and lack scalability and consistency in candidate assessment. The proposed system integrates WebRTC-based audio capture, WebSocket-based real-time streaming, and AI-driven evaluation models to conduct dynamic and interactive interviews. Audio inputs from candidates are processed using Deepgram for speech-to-text conversion, while Groq-powered large language models analyze responses based on structured evaluation metrics such as scoring, leadership assessment, and STAR-based feedback. The system also incorporates resume parsing using PDF processing techniques to provide contextual questioning. Real-time feedback is continuously updated on the dashboard, enabling immediate performance insights. By combining real-time communication, AI evaluation, and scalable architecture, the system provides an efficient, automated, and intelligent solution for modern recruitment processes.
